Hey man, give us a break. We have the most thankless and (usually) underpaid jobs out there! Granted, some are slime like in any profession, but all of us suffer from a long slide into cynicism and black thoughts after a few years... LOL!
Why are pistol smiths grouchy?
I talked to Dick Heine the first of the week. He was grouchy. I was grouchy the week before and it hasn't gotten any better.
Larry is beside himself over the Kimbers he has been working on.
You have to ask why?
Here's why :lol:
The Single Stack Classic is April 28 and 29!
Springfield is the major sponsor and Dick Hieinie wrangles his buddies to build donation guns from the kits Springfield supplies for match prizes. It is a GREAT deal for everyone...well almost everyone :roll: I assume Larry Vickers is doing one , I am doing one, and Dick's right hand man, Matt is doing his own gun for the match this again this year. Plus Dick's OA winner's gun. I am sure there are a bunch more besides the three I am sure of.
So why are we grouchy? Well as of a week ago....three of us hadn't started their prize guns yet.
Things are a little hectic and they all fall to Richard Heinie in the end to make the match a success.
Good luck to Dick and all the shooters of the 2001 SSC....BTW my gun should be there on Tuesday FED EX :grin:
Sorry, no pictures this time
Gotta go! Back to work! :grin:
